The author of I See London sets her sights on Washington, D. C., with a sexy new series about three sisters, the secrets they keep, and a powerful blog with a knack for exposing scandals...

Now that she's landed an internship with a powerful political consulting firm, she's determined to launch her career and take this city by storm.
William Andrew Clayton was born for politics. He knows the drill: work hard, play discreetly, and at all costs, avoid scandal. At twenty-six, his campaign for the Virginia State Senate is the first step to cementing his future. It's time for him to settle down, to find the perfect political spouse. He needs a Jackie Kennedy, not a Marilyn...

When what began as one steamy night, becomes a passion neither one of them can walk way from, they must decide if what they have is really love, or just another dirty little secret...

Scorching hot and wicked smart, Flirting with Scandal had me hooked from page one! Sizzling with sexual tension and political intrigue, Cleeton weaves a story that is as complex as it is sexy. Thank God this is a series because I need more!! - New York Times bestselling author Rachel Harris
Sexy, intelligent, and intriguing. Chanel Cleeton makes politics scandal-icious. - USA Today bestselling author Tiffany King
Chanel Cleeton knocked it out of the park with Flirting with Scandal. The banter was refreshing, the political storyline captivating, and the sexual tension was through the roof. Smart, emotional, romantic, and sizzling hot--this book is fantastic! - Christina Lee, author of the Between Breaths series

I fell in love with Chanel Cleeton and her books ever since I have
read her International School series
that had her name permanently imprinted on my favorite author’s list. This
time, she gives us a new, deliciously sinful, sexy and scandal-filled series
that will take DC by storm.
I am completely, irrevocably in love with it. It’s those witty and
romantic dialogues that will have you smiling and swooning. You keep on looking
forward on what’s next anticipating the scandal that is about to blow up in the
pages.
JACKIE: She looked like
trouble – the kind you couldn’t wait to get into.
She’s absolutely fabulous, the kind of woman you would love and
would love to give that comforting hug for everything she had been through. For
years, she worked her a** off, and despite the fact she has a lot on her plate,
and some skeletons on her closet. Not to mention, she had been working so, so
hard not to turn into her mother. She has walls as high and as sturdy as the
Great Wall of China, and it would take a lot of effort to bring those walls
down. She was the dirty little secret of one of the most popular senators in
DC, she grew up watching scandals unfold in her midst. Now, she found and
internship in one of the most sought after political consulting firm. She was
good at what she does, now if only she can fight temptation.
I’m not a child who gets bored with his
toys after five minutes. If the guys you’ve been with treat you like that, then
you’ve been screwing around with boys. Wouldn’t you rather fuck a man?
William Andrew Clayton was the next big thing in politics. Being one
of the youngest candidates for the senatorial race, he wasn’t new to politics. He
already knows what to expect, but still the campaign was taking a toll on him.
It didn’t help that political blog, Capital Confessions was on him as well. He
needed to know what he needed to do: work harder, play discreetly and most of
all, avoid scandal. He’s the complete package, the boyfriend material: smart,
sexy, crazy good in bed and not to mention he says the right things. If Jackie
was afraid of commitment, he wasn’t. He was brave enough to plunge into the
emotions and risk everything – but question is, will she ever be ready?
I want you to be scared. I want things to
be messy, and complicated, and difficult. I want you to feel, and I want you to
know I’m the one making you feel, that I’m the one making it mean something.
Chanel Cleeton had surpassed expectations with this novel. I love
the combination of romance, steam with a dash of politics and scandal – this
book was a great start to the series I’m sure everyone would look forward too.

Originally a Florida girl, CHANEL CLEETON moved to London where she received a bachelor’s degree from Richmond, The American International University in London and a master’s degree from the London School of Economics and Political Science. Chanel fell in love with London and planned to stay there forever, until fate intervened on a Caribbean cruise and a fighter pilot with smooth dance moves swept her off her feet. Now, a happily ever after later, Chanel is living her next adventure.
Law school made Chanel realize she’d rather spend her days writing sexy stories than in a courtroom, and she hasn’t looked back since. An avid reader and hopeless romantic, she’s happiest curled up with a book. She has a weakness for handbags, her three pups, and her husband.
Chanel writes contemporary romances. She is published by Harlequin HQN, Penguin/InterMix, and Penguin/Berkley and is the author of the International School, Capital Confessions, and Wild Aces series.
